Brow Lift (Forehead Lift) Plastic Surgery

The Typical Brow Lift Patient

  • Anyone that desires a more open, alert, and youthful appearance to the forehead and brow area may be interested in brow lift plastic surgery
  • Brow lift is especially useful in patients with a sagging forehead or brows that are too low or too close to the eyes
  • Brow lift can also be effective in reducing vertical furrows (frown lines) between the eyebrows

Brow Lift Procedure Information

  • Local or general anesthesia can be used and the brow lift procedure takes about two hours
  • Incisions are usually made behind the hairline, but in patients with high foreheads, the incision may be placed in front of the hairline
  • Forehead skin is lifted and repositioned, weakening the muscles that create frown lines
  • All sutures are usually removed within ten days

Recovery from Brow Lift Plastic Surgery

  • Initial discomfort is mild, and can be controlled with oral medications prescribed by Dr. Pittman-Waller
  • Swelling improves daily, and is normally gone in seven to ten days

Results of Brow Lift Plastic Surgery

  • A more youthful, smoother appearance to the forehead and brow
  • A rested, more alert appearance
  • Reduction in wrinkles on the forehead and between the eyebrows

Complete details of the brow lift plastic surgery procedure will be given during your personalized consultation with San Antonio cosmetic surgeon Dr. Pittman-Waller.
